This week, we’d like to introduce you to one of our dancers that joined our team in October 2013 – Meg Bronson.
Ever since this charming dancer was a young girl, dancing at the local YMCA and performing in front of people gave her an unrivaled feeling of comfort, happiness, and home. Her mother quickly noticed her talent and impeccable rhythm so she continued to encourage and support Meg to dance as much as possible. In a perfect culmination of this support and the passion from within her, dance became the most important thing in her life and her greatest passion.
Throughout her high school years, Meg’s devotion was never abandoned and she trained for several hours a day and excelled through various competitions. Towards the end of her college years, she followed her heart and decided to pursue her life dream of dance as a career. She followed her heart and made her dream come true. She enrolled herself at the York University of Dance and was soon training to be the professional dancer she had imagined as a little girl.
When Meg arrived in New York, her voice as an individual and an artist came alive. The big city provided a place for Meg to be comfortable to articulate her passions through her artistic movement and expression.
Meg explained for us the important role dance holds in her life and said, “Dance is the strongest way for me to express myself. I’m more of an introverted individual, especially while I was growing up…So movement was the most powerful tool for me to non-verbally communicate.”
One of her most breath taking performances with the company to date would definitely be the performances at Jazz at Lincoln Center.
When describing another adventurous experience with Bodystories: Teresa Fellion Dance, here is what Meg had to say:
“While we were there to perform, residing at Dragon’s Egg in Connecticut was one of the craziest experiences I’ve ever had. The late January forecast predicted a terrible snowstorm for the evening of our departure. Even though we left Connecticut early, our 3 hour drive turned into an 8 hour fiasco. But, I’ll just say that it was an extremely memorable and bonding experience for me and the rest of the company!”
